There’s plenty of myth and magic to discover in our latest selection of unusual retreats. For example: how about bedding down in an opulent clifftop cabin, whose cutting-edge design was inspired by a legendary Suffolk sea monster?
You could also hop on a broomstick and fly to the Isle of Man, where you’ll find a historic mill that once formed part of the world’s first Museum of Magic and Witchcraft! Now a four-storey family retreat, highlights include an impossibly scenic glass rooftop and a children’s bunk room with its very own ‘fairytale tree’.
Speaking of trees, if you head to a sprawling farm estate in the North Downs, you’ll have the opportunity to relax in a UK first – a transparent, magazine-featured tree-tent suspended in a private woodland space… complete with a fairy-lit al fresco bathtub for added romance.
What else? Stay at the grand estate of one of Scotland’s most iconic literary figures, or travel to Ireland’s Ancient East for a quirky stay in one of the Great Gardens of the World. Though if the wide open water is more your style, no problem. You can always kick back in a skippered and hosted luxury sailing yacht and explore the shimmering south coast, instead!
